Oxytocin or the oxytocin receptor is expressed in some of the brain regions affected by developmental oxytocin exposure, though their expression often varies depending on species, age, and sex.
“Oxt or the Oxtr is expressed in some of these regions (68, 91), though their expression in these brain areas often varies depending on species, age, and sex.”
From Oxytocin during Development: Possible Organizational Effects on Behavior (2015) · cites this paper as [91]
In rats, some of the regions with high densities of OT receptor include the olfactory nucleus, hypothalamic regions, and the central amygdala.
“In rats, some of the regions with high densities of OT receptor include the olfactory nucleus, hypothalamic regions, and the central amygdala (Tribollet and Barberis, 1996; Tribollet et al., 1992).”
From Oxytocin and social cognition in rhesus macaques: Implications for understanding and treating human psychopathology (2014) · cites this paper as Tribollet et al., 1992
Varying levels of OT receptors were detected across many functional subsystems, such as the limbic, basal ganglia, cortical, brainstem and the spinal cord.
“Importantly, varying levels of OT receptors were detected across many functional subsystems, such as the limbic, basal ganglia, cortical, brainstem and the spinal cord (Tribollet et al., 1992).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
